They can even ride in rain and snow! $250 deposit but I don't know what the MSRP is.

Gyroscopes are anything but cutting edge tech, they literally built a train that rode on a single rail line over a hundred years ago thanks to them

[@GingerOnWheels]

But, motorcycle though.

[@alexnorth2452]

@@GingerOnWheels and you think a motorcycle even compares to a train being able to do this? It's a train, not an over priced bicycle

[@GingerOnWheels]

@@alexnorth2452 nah they are just two completely different modes of transport. The motorcycle one looks like a lot of fun and I'm all about that.

[@alexnorth2452]

@@GingerOnWheels different modes of transport, but identical design and my original point was that the gyros are in no way a new tech

[@obargnila351]

Heck yea

[@Nemonurwingy]

If they got it down to cheaper than a low end sedan car, I’d definitely be interested. Safety is an issue, but weather is also a big thing. My family is very close to being a one car household already since I can EUC to a train station, if my wife and I could coordinate who might need the car and who just needs needs to ride alone (and she could ride it despite not knowing how to ride a motorcycle), I can easily see that catching on if they really have perfected the safety. If anybody could drive it in any weather, it sounds great. I’m skeptical it could live up to all that, though.

Damn thats sick!!

[@foxsinwolf7477]

We should replace cars with these, it should promote easier travel.

[@AAlienGaming]

looks fun tbh

[@aptrm80]

Yip 👍🏼😀

[@grapeseed427]

So what sort of fail-safe is there for when the gyroscope fails?

[@GingerOnWheels]

There are two that I saw, maybe one is a backup? 🧐 Or maybe that's what the angles bumpers on the sides are for 😅

[@tomprevost2477]

170 mi range for a buck? yeah right

[@GingerOnWheels]

A KWh of electricity costs $0.09 here, $1 would give you ~10,000 watt hours. I can get 120 mile range at low speed on my electric unicycle with just 3,600 watt hours. This thing weighs more and goes faster so I could see it using more power, but it's a very believable number imo.

[@Soeks77]

Yea that sick, but I prefer an actual enclosed motorcycle with standard controls

[@appleadayboy]

this you can stay warm in winter with some groceries

[@BK-pc3ei]

This is actually safe, unlike motorcycles, which are not

[@Soeks77]

Guys I meant for the same enclosed motorcycle shape to be used, except for normal motorcycle controls like foot shifter foot brake hand throttle and hand clutch and brake. A steering wheel inside this thing would be weird, especially with a gyro too I like leaning
